Breatfeeding Revisited

I posted previously regarding breastfeeding in public (see here and here). Recently, on ifeminists.com, there is an editorial about it. I found an interesting statement:

Breastfeeding need not devolve into cultural warfare. The issue will yield to courtesy, common sense and a bit of respect for the other person's rights.

I think this is the kernel of the issue. With a little respect for others, we would not have many of the problems that face us today. This is just one issue of many in which a little courtesy would go a very, very long way.
